1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectivesto identify the stressors experienced by informal caregivers based on Betty Neuman's Systems Model.

methodsthis descriptive, qualitative study was conducted with informal caregivers of older adults registered and assisted by an institution in Presidente Prudente, São Paulo. Data were collected in October 2023 through audio-recorded semi-structured interviews and subjected to thematic content analysis.

resultsthe 12 participating caregivers were between 30 and 59 years old. Conditions such as sleep deprivation, physical exhaustion, lack of support, financial hardship, and compromised health are examples of stressors experienced, which impacted caregivers' ability to cope with care demands without compromising their physical and emotional health. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: interventions that promote balance, mental health, and strengthening caregivers' support networks can help them find and use more effective coping and self-regulation mechanisms.
